Worldwide
Stomach
Horses
Indirect Cycle: Eggs produced in the stomach hatch in the intestine, larvae emerge and eaten by maggots-L1-L2-L3, escape when fly feeds or stay in fly in water (if around mouth, both cases lead to adults in stomach, can also wind up in skin, lungs, or eyes via wounds.

Diagnosis: Fecal float, endoscopy
Treatment: Ivermectin, fenbendazole, pyrantel pamoate, prevent predation - 6—Physaloptera spp.

Clinical signs: Decreased gain, intense muscle pain, nonspecific enteritis, diarrhea, abdominal pain, fever, myositis, circumorbital edema
